The school linguistic discrimination is a form of racism whose countercultural resistance is poorly documented. In this paper we analyze the beliefs that favor indigenous bilingual school discrimination migrants and describe some of the answers as there are also mechanisms of school counterculture. We conducted a phenomenological research constructivist social, whose field work was conducted in two schools in the neighborhood of La Merced is located in Mexico City. We found that poverty, migrant status and child labor persist as stigma in school life. However, trouble speaking Spanish is probably the cause of more severe school violence because it is naturalized through nicknames and teasing, but paradoxically generates a model of bilingualism counter strengthens linguistic identities in a playful way.
